Heart, lippy and Fenella at 30.

1. Sun at a low angle reflects off a puddle in the drive and makes a shining heart on the garage wall.

2. Andy is at work in the kitchen when we arrive. I ask if the lipstick is part of his costume for Fenella de Ville's 30th birthday party. He smiles and says: 'It's the weekend.' Later he reappears as an unwilling dalmatian in a furry suit.

3. When the time comes to cut the wonderful chocolate cake, Fenella is swaying slightly, but as proud and as happy as any woman should be at the age of 30.

About this blog

My name is Clare Law and I'm a mother and a writer and an editor. I've been keeping this daily diary since 2004: I started it because I needed a quick and easy-to-keep blog to be like my colleagues at a new job. It's brought me so many wonderful things, and introduced me to many wonderful people; and the practice has helped me take note of life's many tiny pleasures.
